My opinion may all change I think after my first track day in the 172, at the moment it is unknown territory. I am sure it is safe as long as you are sensible as was said before.
I see, small world eh !?
Well next time you are down that way you will have to pop into Llys Aneirin (first right before you get to Marks house), you will see my car in the drive. If you can meet up somewhere around Swansea then that would be fine too.
Dai
The car looks mint mate !
What springs ?
Fook yeah I know Mark, he lives around the corner from me, I live in Garden Village ! I went to school with Gareth, his brother. Do you go down that way sometimes ?
Not seen a GTI-6 around so I dont think I know Craig.
I have a MKII Blue 172, reg plate BCZ **** ! You will have to let me know when you are free next because I want to see those wheels. Has the car been lowered ?
Gywnny, just checking mate ! I am from Gorseinon so I am just down the road. I gotta see your car in the flesh cos those wheels look stunning. Was not keen on them when I saw pics of them off the car but now they look mint ! What did you do with the Turinis ?
Will have to meet up to see it !
When I test drove the 182 it did not rattle at all to be honest. The car only had 100 miles on the clock tho. I have yet to witness the knocking sound under acceleration.
There must be some tatty but mechanically sound Williams out there surely ? I do want a Williams if I can get one but maybe I am hoping for a miracle ?
It is up for £3,850 now on Auto Trader. REALLY good price ! Looks gorgeous, those wheels are stunning I have to say !
There is another one on there too you may want to look at :

I am sure it is feasible to get a tatty old Williams for a cheap price, it will NOT be used on the road at all.
jon, is that right ? Got any links ? I have been in a Caterham, sh1t my pants ! LOL !
Martin, I take it that is your everyday car too or a 2nd NON-ROAD car ?
TheJesus, there...
I have been toying with the idea of buying a cheap Williams and stripping it down for use on track days as I would like to start going to as many as I can throughout the year and I dont really want to keep taking the 172 around the track because of wear and tear, etc. Maybe I care about the 172...
Managed to find some pics eventually :

Looks better than the standard Cup one dont you think ?
Had to drive past the Renault dealer in Swansea this morning and as I did there was a recovery truck pulling up with a W reg, MKI Silver 172 on the back of it with all the back end smashed in on the corner.
Maybe a casualty of the snow that we had down here yesterday ? Hope it didnt belong...
How easy would it be to have a bracket made that would hook into the pen slot under the CD/Temp/Time display on the MKII Clio 172 and then hang down over the air vents and CD player ? Will a firm make this for you as I am unsure if the monitor I want will fit in the cup holders and you may not...
I am going for a standalone monitor for around £100, not forking out that much for a flip out as my mate has just had his stolen and it put me off as you cannot take it with you.
I am hoping I can get it all working for under £200 initially as I already have the PS2. Would be good to install it in the boot but still be able to use it in the house if needed.
Dont want to bother with a PC or anything like that, just want to be able to watch DVDs and play games via the...
